Mike's Story

shortly after graduation from brownsburg high, in june 1981 i moved to denver co. with my parents. broke my heart because it was the end of my relationship with my girlfriend MELISSA McCOY (84 bburg grad.) when i moved i had a 73 chevelle laguna and it wasn't my dream car but in december of 81 i bought a 1969 PLYMOUTH ROAD RUNNER with a 440 engin and a four speed. not a very important fact except for the cruising scene in denver was enourmous from 81 to 85 and this sums up who i was during this period. i worked odd jobs (mostly lumber yards) up to 85 and that was ok because i was a cruiser. got a lot of tickets and lost my license once and in 84 i felt it might be time for a change. i enlisted in the air force IN in the fall of 1984 and sold my ROAD RUNNER on may 14, 1985. i sure wish i had that car back! may 15, 85 i went into the af hoping to get into firefighting or law enforcement but they had other plans for me. the job they assigned me was dental lab tech. i was so mad, they said my test scores were too high and i would get bored with what i wanted. i gave it a shot and as i expected i didn't like it. i asked to be removed and reclassified and they refused saying that i was doing well on tests and in class so i was to remain a dental lab tech. unfortunately i had to intentionly fail to be removed from the class. long story short, i was reclassified as something else unacceptable and i requested a discharge. after a brief tug of war i was granted a full honorable discharge on jan 15, 1985. i really wish it would have worked out as i really liked the air force overall. back to denver. worked in private security until 1992 when i got on the denver police department. that was ok until my parents retired and moved to arkansas. now i was in denver by myself. in 94 i moved to memphis with my grandma which was also reasonably close ...Expand for more
to my parents in arkansas. wasn't really doing anything and one day i got a call from a great highschool friend TERRI HARDIN (married name POWELL) inviting me to come back to indy. i sold all i had and started over in indy. lived at 16th and lynhurst from about oct 95 until about march of 02. lived on rockville rd. near lynhurst from mar 02 to about april 03. worked for a plastics co in indy also worked for the prison in plainfield for about 8 months. april 13, 2003 i moved to arkansas to be closer to my family. work as a machine operator at a local factory for 6 years now. maybe im a mamas boy or something but being close to family is really important to me. i really don't want to have to drive more than 2 hrs to visit my mom and where i am now i have much of my family within 20 minutes. as far as a family of my own i am a late late bloomer. i have a lovely family that i am so proud of. i've been married to AMY for 5 years and have 2 wonderful sons ELIJAH 6 and JOHNATHON 2. JOHN is named after my very best friend in life JOHN BOFFO who graduated brownsburg high in 1982. on may 12, 2008 my father passed away. he is pictured with me and my mother in the then picture which was taken on my graduation night in may of 1981. if i was 1/100th the man my dad was i would be 10 times the man i am now! another thing i didn't mention but it pretty much sums up who i was from 1986 to about 2000. i was heavily into racing h.o. slot cars during most of these years both in denver and in indy. it really was an obsession. i always wanted to be a racecar driver and think i would have been a great one. i put my focus into slots and was very successful at it. it was fun but it got me nowhere, should have went to school! now i enjoy any time with my family. taking pictures, swimming, riding bikes, riding four wheelers etc. etc. etc.
